Quote of the week

"Man's search for meaning" by Dr. Viktor E. Frankl is one of the most influential books written in the last half of the 20th century. This book detailed Dr. Frankl's experiences in a Nazi concentration camp. He decided to make the best of a horrible situation by using his imprisonment to study human nature. This book inspired many later motivational writers and speakers. Here is a quote from Dr. Frankl's book:

"Everything can be taken from a person but one thing: the last of human freedoms--to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances."

After reading Frankl's book it is hard to complain about one's lot in life. If he can create a masterwork in a Nazi camp, we can rise above anything life can throw at us. I highly recommend this book.

Keep Smiling, Keep Selling!
